DM for more info. When I was a kid I was teased for being different which taught me to hide the real me behind a mask. I started to see a shift.

We help women and non-binary folks with ADHD carve out me-time, set boundaries, and conquer all the things that make it difficult to adult, through private & group coaching. My nine-year-old self learned that if I didn't ask questions, I didn't make waves, and I didn't act “stupid” then my friends wouldn't ridicule or make fun of me and that felt safer. As an adult I felt lost and frustrated with my life, which led me to explore every possible path for personal growth that I could get my hands on. I went through so many books and programs that I couldn't finish them all. It was like going from shiny thing to shiny thing and bleeding money in the process. Some things did stick though and overtime I started to find the real me. As I started to embrace my imperfections and show bits of my true crazy self to the world. That all started when I became a yoga teacher in 2014. I found people complimenting my crazy yoga pants and reaffirming the things that make me uniquely me. Their joy helped me to feel more joyful. It wasn't until the pandemic of 2020 that I finally figured out what I'm truly good at: coaching. And not just any coaching, Yoga & Life Coaching, that brings together the philosophy of yoga into each coaching session. I discovered that I feel more grounded and able to coach and lead when I remember to breathe. Through Yoga & Life Coaching I got clear on my four core values and what matters to me most. That helped me clarify my purpose: Coaching women who feel the necessity to blend in so they can shed their mask and become their true self. Do you feel unsure of who you are? Every time you blend in, ignore your needs, and ignore your wants
you’re telling yourself that you don’t really matter

And overtime the real you has hidden behind your mask. Isn’t it time to stop blending? Take off that mask and reconnect with your true self. Pick a time to put you first and schedule your consultation to learn if working with me might be a good fit for you.

How to stop giving all your energy away and having nothing left for yourself. 😩

Take this your permission slip to stop morphing yourself into what you think other people want you to be.

To stop blending in.

Be your weird, quirky, nerdy, geeky self with people that instantly get you…

That’s what you get in CommuniTea 🫶🏿🫶🏻🫶🏽

CommuniTea is where you get to be your full weird-overwhelming self AND feel fully supported and understood by everyone in the group. 🦋

It’s where you find your people. 💓

The ones who get it. 🤩

The ones who laugh at the same weird stuff. 🤣

The ones who say “YESSSSSSS!” when you share the thing you thought was too much. 🥳

This isn’t a space to vent.

It’s a space to explore, understand, and connect. 🥰

“I feel like CommuniTea was created for people like me, that need a gentle nudge.” - Adrienne

CommuniTea has real conversations with heaps of validation and without judgement. I love the flow, that two of us could have answered the journaling prompt radically different but somehow the convo flows and morphs and it all makes sense.” - Rigel

Six-Week CommuniTea starts this Sunday February 22nd.

If you’ve been craving deeeeeeep connections that don’t require you to over-explain or justify yourself, then take this as your sign to join CommuniTea through link in bio.

Two things!

➡️ Boundaries & Balance is postponed to 2027 (so that CoummuniTea: The Journaling Group can support us through 2026)

➡️ I’m challenging myself to make a reel every day for 30 days (they could be crap, hilarious, or inspiring. They’ll definitely be alllllll me)

If you want to catch my 30 days of reels, make sure you’re following 💜

If you want more of my vulnerable, insightful, and hilarious energy subscribe to my weekly emails. 💌

🫡 that’s all for now

🔮 Have a magical day and fabulous week

Calling myself out here and sending you lots of love ❤️

It’s FINALLY here (3+ years in the making)

Boundaries & Balance enrollment is officially open!! 🎉

B&B is a group coaching program designed specifically for humans who are exhausted from constantly saying yes. 😩

Not theory.

Not a workbook you’ll never finish.

NOT another self-led course.

Real, practical live support to help you:

Identify where your boundaries are being ignored 👀

Get clear on what YOU need ❤️

Learn how to communicate those boundaries ☺️

And have the tools to easily process (and let go of) the guilt and second-guessing that comes up. 🤩

I only offer B&B once a year and there are only 8 spots! 😮

“It’s possible to say no. Just because somebody asked or wants something or might need something from you, it’s not an automatic yes. I had a hard time coming to that conclusion. Boundaries & Balance helped me figure out how to tell somebody no, let them down gently and still be friendly afterwards, it’s not an automatic cut ties with somebody.” - Cat

Do you want to set better boundaries without pushback or guilt?

An epiphany on something they tell you to do in business that doesn’t work for me anymore.

Hi 👋🏻 I’m Kerstin, The Boundaries Coach (she/her) 💖

I help exhausted humans stop saying yes when they mean no—and set healthy boundaries without the guilt.

The top 3 signs that we’re a good fit to work together:

If you’re feeling…

😩 exhausted from saying yes to everything,

😣 frustrated or resentful in one (or all) areas of your life

🔁 like you’re repeating the same patterns over and over (and can’t seem to make a change actually stick)

➡️ that’s a sign that you need better boundaries.

I work with clients in three ways:
1. 🌟 Private coaching
2. 💓 Group coaching with my signature program Boundaries & Balance
3. ✍🏻 Weekly Journaling Group: CommuniTea

How to know which of my services is best for you?

🤓 If you feel most resentment & frustration in your day-job (more than anywhere else) private coaching is the best fit for you. Book a free consultation to get started (I also recommend joining my email list).

🏠 If you feel most resentment & frustration in your relationships and keep doing the same stuff over and over (like saying yes to everything before checking your schedule or always putting yourself last on your to-do list) then Boundaries & Balance is the thing for you! Send me a quick DM that says “I need Boundaries & Balance” to get started (I also recommend joining my email list).

🏳️‍🌈 If you feel like you need a supportive group of humans in your life where you can fully let your freak flag fly while working through your limiting beliefs and the crap stuck in your head then my weekly journaling group CommuniTea is for you. Send me a quick DM that says “I need CommuniTea” (I also recommend joining my email list).

🦋 Annnnnnnnd if you’re all three, you’re not alone! Most of my clients work with me through all of my offerings but usually not all at once. If you’re having trouble deciding, definitely join my email list and I highly recommend booking a free consultation so we can talk through it together.

(Plus my print shop has 📚 journals & planners that I designed to keep you focused and working through the 💩 that comes up in your day to day, so that I recommend to everyone)

Our Story

Kerstin began her yoga journey almost by accident back in 1999. Since then she’s grown and found that yoga has the power to calm her, to work out the kinks from her day, and eliminate unnecessary stress. In 2014 Kerstin took her yoga journey to the next level by becoming an E-RYT 200 hour certified power yoga teacher. But she hasn’t stopped there. Kerstin realized that yoga alone wouldn’t make her complete and she started delving into nutrition and other healthy habits. When she launched her own business Love and Live Yoga she wanted to help people through every aspect of their lives: improve movement and flexibility through yoga, reduce stress, and cultivate better eating habits to keep the yoga glow flowing all day.
